AFTER THE BATTLE.
'The Aspect of Troops at Farads and Dur
ri a Fanguinary Conflict.
The aspect of troops of all arim of
the service is very different in battle
from the trim and neat parade appear
ance, but nowhere is this difference so
marked as in the artillery. It was al
ways most interesting to me to watch
a battery going into action. The artil
lerymen were very careful at all times
to be dressed strictly in accordance
with regulations, and when a battery
took position every cannoneer looked
as if he had just prepared himself for
inspection. Nothing could be neater
and more uniform than their appear
ance. But this did not last long. As
the fire began to get hot a jacket here
. and there would be thrown off; next
the collars would go, and often the
shirts. The men were soon bathed in
perspiration, which they would hastily
brush off with their powder-blackened
hands, leaving great marks wherever
- they touched themselves. When the
men began to fall and were carried to
the rear by their comrades, blood stains
were added to the powder marks, and at
wtrise of the fig'ht the artillerymen,
1 so remarkable for their fine appearance
at its owning; presented the most hor
rible s)!ctacle that cart be imagined.
But they soon removed all trace of the
. fray, and by the next day were as clean
and neat as ever. Colonel J. Ii. (Jon

A True Mother of Heroes.
A lecent application of a West Vir
ginian named Brown at tho Pension
Office in Washington brought to light
the fact that one mother had given six
teen sons to the service of 'the Union
during the war. She had borne thirty
three children in all, of whom twenty
were boys, and of these only four did
not serve as soldiers in the Union army.
Two were killed and fourteen survive.
Each of the latter is to-day in receipt of
a pension from the Government for
disabilities received in the service, and
the death of her other soldier sons en
titles the mother also to a pension.
The case ii an interesting one, not only
for the remarkable number of sons of
one mother who wore tho blue, but as
illustrating how contagious was the

FITS OF SNEEZING.
now they are Canned unit How They May
IS Prevented and Cured.
The. nasal cavities are everywhere
lined with mucous membrane, in which
terminate various nerves. To increase
the surface of sensitivo membrane, the
walls of the cavities are not regular,
but two thin bones, covered with mem
brane and nerves, swell out from the
sides, almost tilling the cavities. These
aro called the "turbinated bones,"
from their top-like shape. The nerves
ot smell are mainly in the upper part
of the nasal cavities, where they dir
reetly connect with tho "olfactory
tract of the brain.
The nerves over tho lower turbinated
bone are wholly devoid of the sense of
smell, but when unduly sensitive, give
rise to various troublesome ailments
hay fever, fits of sneezing, asthma.
When thus sensitive and producing
these eftects, tho membrane is found to
be thickened from chronic congestion
of the part, Tim blood-supply to tho
nerves is excessive. In sumo persons
the sneezing is violent, frequent, and
continuous for many months. Some
times the tits of sneeing give place to
attacks of asthma.
Hack, of Germany, is a strong advo
cate for the use of the galvano-cautery
in all such,, and many allied, cases.
Dr. Do Ilaviland Hall, of Kngland,
while thinking that too much is
claimed for this remedy, savs "that
there aro certain neurotic affections,
the starting-point of which is the
mucous nasal membrane, can not,
I think, be denied, and in these
cases cure can bo most readily effected
by treatment directed to this part.
Hack, bv point'ng out that the most
ready method of influencing the nutri
tion of the mucous membrane of the
nose is by the employment of the
galvano-cautery, has enabled us to
treat successfully and promptly many
cases formerly difficult to manajro."
Ho also gives an account of signal
cases thus cured by himself. The pre
vious application of cocaine to the mem
brane, renders the operation wholly, or
nearly, painless. Dr. Hall says, how
ever, that many cases can bo as
effectually cured by more simple
measures, and he would always have
these tried first. Youth's Companion.
HARES IN A BATTLE.
s Kxtraordlnnry Incident of the Dei
perate r'lirht at Wagraui.
A singular incident of the battle of
Wagrani, between the French and the
Austrians, is related by Captain Blaze,
of the French Imperial Guard. He says
that beside being a great contest ' of
nrms, the day was a great hare-hunt.
There were 400,000 hunters, half Aus
trians and half Flench. The plain was
simply covered with hares, which tho
long advauce of the two armies had
gathered into the narrow space. Every
ten steps we started up one of these
animals. Frightened by our guns,
they ran for their lives, and continued
to run until they reached the Austrian
lines. There they were none the less
terrified, and came rushing back upon
us. The Sfddiers were greatly amused
by the frantic movements of the hares,
and could hardly be restrained from
making after them.
Finally there was a great Austrian
cavalry charge, which, of course, took
no account of the hares. The horses
plunged in among them, and they
rushed in dismay among the ranks of
the French soldiers, who, confused by
so strange an attack, oegan bayoneting
the hares. Other soldiers, not innne
diately pressed by the onset of the
enemy, caught up the trembling ani
mals in their hands. There was that
day a great slaughter of men and of
hares, and many a shot destined for the
enemy struck one of these pooranimals,
who doubtless believed that both the
great armies had come there expressly
Ut hunt them, the hares, instead of to
hunt each other. livuth's Companion,
ROYAL JUBILEES.
How the Pharaohs Celebrated the Annt
versaries of Their Coronation.
In connection with the ques'ion of
jubilees, a correspondent calls to mind
the first thirty years jubilee of Amen
hetep III., or, as written by the Greeks,
Amenophis IIL, Pharaoh of Egypt,
which occurred in the thirtieth year of
his reign, in or about the year 1470 B.
C. The King, it is recorded, sat upon
his throne to receive the list of tho
tributes from the north and south, ac
cording to the taxing of the full Nile at
the festival of the thirtieth year. We
find that Pharaoh did not only receive
tributes and gifts, but that he rewarded
those subjects who had faithfully paid
their taxes with a necklace, an equiva
lent at the present day to receiving a
decoration at the hands of the sov
ereign. It is also Btated that the people
gave more taxes than they were obliged,
and then departed to their homes, well
contented that the King had shown
himself upon his throne, and the tax
payers of the south and north had been
rewarded. We also find that Kamcses
II. celebrated a thirty years' jubilee
with great festivities throughout his
dominions. His second jubilee took
place in the thirty-fourth year, tho
third in tho thirty-seventh year, and the
fourth in the fortieth year of his reign.
Thotmes III. and many other Egyptian
Kings had long reigns, but I am not
aware that it is recorded that they cele
brated their thirty years' jubilee.

THE SULTAN'S SADDLE.
How l'lus IX l'ut Nome Mohammedan
IHiiimmtlH to (lood Vse,
Tho present Pope has 110 less than
four tiaras, the most noted of which
was "built ' expressly for Pius IX, al
the order of the ex-Queen Isabella oi
Spain, in ISM. Although presented ti
the Pone at the tune mentioned, it
never was worn until tho services ol
the proclamation of tho dogma of the
Immaculate Conception. Its form is
ovoid, with a foundation of silver doth,
upon which, piled one above the other,
are tin ee crowns, magnificent in bril
liant diamonds, and other precious
stones and pendant pearls. On tht
summit of this ovoid structure is 11
cross made of diamonds, on tho top ol
which is perched a globe of .precious
stones, supported by a great, deep
azure, sparkling sapphires. The crowns
resemble ducal crowns en blazon, the
pearl ornaments alternating with leal
ornaments. The would-be monotony
of the lower circle is avoided by golden
lines of bands, between which aro lit
erally sown, as in a field, emeralds,
rubies and pearls. This beautiful piece
of headjrear. weisrhs 2 1-4 pounds ami
cost only a trifle over 500.000 francs.
Now, Pius IX., wanted, on the proc
lamation of his favorite ilosrimi, a
chalice to go along with his tiara. The
Queen of Spain and other Cntlyolie
monarchs had neglected that important
article in tho service of tho Komaii
Catholic Church. But his Holiness
was something of an inventor. In the
year 1853 Abdul Medjid, tho Turkish
Sultao (ho of Crimean war memory),
sent Pius IX. an Oriental s-ddle,
whoso cloth and leather portions, ex
cept tho scat, were studded with pre
cious stones, mostly diamonds. Now,
the highest expression of tho Turkish
Emperor's appreciation of a person,
whether an Ambassador or tho Ambas
sador's master, is a horse or a saddle.
But "tho turbaned Turk," who doubt
less had seen old pictures and engrav
ings representing the "head of tho
Church" in procession on horseback,
did not know that since Clement XIV.
was thrown from his horse in tho Ro
man Forum, tho Pontiffs have ceased
equestrian performances. The Sultan's
saddle then had no practical or possi
ble destination beyond being hung up
on a peg within a glass case.
However, one day a happy though
came to Pius IX He ordered the sad
dle to be taken from its peg and the
precious stones to be picked out, in or
der that they might become the decora
tions of a chalico which should equal
in beauty, brilliancy and costliness the
tiara presented by tho ex-Qucen Isa-i
bella. So the Vatican jeweler built ii(
a vessel which was enameled over l
the deepest blue. On this decji-blus
enamel the diamonds were grouped it
bouquets, but the real piece do resist
ance was a cross made wholly of dia
monds that stood out in magnificent
relief against tho azure fond. Thil
chalice was used on the occasion re
ferred to, and tho clerical journals saj
that the sight of it "produced a pro
found impression." Home Cor. Parti

TWO
KINDS OF MALARIA.
The PoUonoun Moral and Spiritual Atuto
pht-re Found in Many lloufte.
In China, certain districts are sup
posed to bo under tho control of de
mons, who prohibit their usi for hu
man habitations. When foreigners
persist in building upon these banned
spots, they aro warned that they do il
at the risk of life. In most instances
the warning proves true, as the super
stition concerning the demons is tin
Chinese way of expressing tho fact thai
the locality is malarious. Many tribes
of the North American Indians refuse
to live in a wigwam or hut in which
there have been two cases of disease 01
a death. Tho district of Qualla, in
North Carolina, inhabited by the Cher
okces, used to be full of vacant huts,
which the innvates had deserted fol
this cause. "They are accursed," said
the Indians. Like the Chinaman, thej
had laid to the charge of their evil
spirits the misdeeds of miasma.
Modern sanitary scionco is doing
much to make clear to us tho mysterj
of the malaria, or had air, which haunl
certain houses or districts, poisoning
life; and we are learning how to exor
cise them by drainage, trap, and disin
fectants. But there is a moral malum
which is to be found in certain houses
which no sanitary rules will touch.
There are" families who, without a word
of complaint, inspire the stranger wilt
gloom and discontent. There are oth
ers in which envy. and malice rngeliks
epidemics. In some, lying is hereditarj
in the soul, as scrofula is in some bodies;
in others and these are the greatet
majority of unfortunate a petty ran it
afflicts every member as an ugly rest
does certain children. On the contrary.
there are homes in which a faith ai
pure as sun light, ana cheerfulness,
strengthening as the wholesome morn
ing air, help and invigorate all wlu
enter them.
In the spring of the year tho mem
bers of every educated family in this
country usually examine into tho con
dition of the house in which they live,
and cause its impurities to be removed
and the air cleansed, in order to avoid
disease during the year. Why do the
not also try to find out what is th
spiritual atmosphere of their homeP Is
it healthful, or poisonous to those whe
enter it? Of 0110 filing they may be
certain, that it is the atmosphere, that
imperceptible, unconscious influence
which, more than any direct teaching,
will decide tho character and motives
of the children in a family. Youth' t

PROGRESS IN COOKERY.
Is the Food at Ta-ltay Metier Than That
of Fifty, Year Ago?
This Is a question which at first it
seems difficult to answer. Tho para
phernalia of ' housekeeping has 1 ti
creased tenfold but we can not say
that the Improvement has boon in
ratio to this increase. Wo aro not ten
fold better- housekeepers than our
grand mothers. Tho increased work
of the modern house calls for a reti
nue of servants whero 0110 or two
formerly did the work, or for extra
help in smaller households, whero
formerly tho work was chiefly done by
tho mistress of tho houso. Tho vex
ing question of tervieo is continually
arising, ami much of tho cooking,
which was formerly dono by tho mis
tress of tho houso, is now, left to tho
unskilled hand of a domestic worker,
who is often utterly ignorant of tho
primary laws of the kitchen. Our
larders of to-day aro so much better
supplied with good and wholesome
food, our cooking facilities tiro sc
much greater, our cooking utensils are
so much better, that it must bo a pool
cook, indued, who can not set our
tables with more wholesome and a
greater variety of food.

Tomatoes were

called "love apples" and were grown
for ornamental purposes. So firm
rooted was the common boliof that they
wore poisonous that it is related, tho
two culprits who stolo soinn from the
yard of a justico of tho peace and in
cidentally tasted one, soon found they
were attacked with what they believed
to bo tho pains of poison, and hastily
canto to confess their theft. The va
rieties of sweet corn in uso fifty years
ago were littlo better than field corn.
The culture of small fruits was un
known. There were no strawberries
but the wild fruit.
Tho improvement in raising and fat
tening beef, veal, mutton and lamb is
beyond question. The pork fifty years
ago was probably better than it is to
day, but there has been a steady de
crease in tho use of pork as propor
tioned to the population. Other meats
have taken its place. A minister's
wife, who visited a well-to-do par
ishioner on tho Hudson river many
years ago tells of sitting down to a din
ner table on which the solo dish was a
huge platter of boiled pork with ap
ples, which were boiled w ith the pork
and served on the same platter. "1
did my best to eat it." added tho lady,
who had been city bred and used to
comparatively delicate fare, "but I
was careful never to bo caught at dinner-time
near that houso afterward."
It would be impossible to find so coarse
a dish as this on any man's table to
day. "The pork would be boiled sep
arately and the apples made Into sauce.
Whether the poultry of to-day is bet

treat care in raising their chickens
and capons and paid careful attention

modern cooks may well copy,
Canned fruits and vegetables havo
added immensely to tho resources of
the modern cook. There have been
great improvements in tho speed and
fineness with which grains are ground.
All kinds of meal aro now kiln-dried.

Flour made by the patent-roller proc
ess is not quite so sweet, though it is
easier to make good liirht bread of it
than of tho old-time flour. We should
turn back to somo of the simpler ways
of our ancestors in cookery. The de
mands of modem society have driven
the ladies of the household from the
kitchen, and the preparation of food is
loft too often in the hands of untu
tored servants. "To your saucepans,

Arduous Ititl of the I.uUlea Who Walt on

The maids of honor to tho Queen
earn every penny of tho 1100 a year
which is their stipend for filling a very
ilillleult position. While on duty they
run not call their souls their own.
After breakfast, which they tako in
their own rooms, they have to hold
themselves in instant readiness to obey
the Queen's summons, which comes
tho moment Sir Henry Ponsouby quits
her Majesty's presence, with tho big
red morocco dispatch-box containing
his day's work under his arm.
After ft brief "Good morning" tho
Queen suggest, a littlo rending, and
tho dutiful maid addresses herself to
the pile of papers wherein tho proper
passages for her Majesty's hearing havo
already been marked by Sir Henry.
Through columns and columns of par
liamentary debate, leading articles, and
correspondence has the poor lady to
intone her dismal way, often having to
repeat passages, for the Quceu never
leaves a Mibject till sho has thoroughly
mustered it, and is not at all sparing iu
her commands to "Just read that
again, please." Tho maid of honor Is
so busy minding her stops and trying
to modulate her voice that she has little
chance of understanding a tithe of
what she is reading, nnd yet the mo
ment tho rending is over sho has to
rush off and get ready 'or a drivo with
her royal mistress, during which she
will be expected to make lucid remarks
on the topics sho has just rend aloud.
After luncheon is the only real timo
tho maids of honor have to themselves,
and even that is spoilt for them by tho
uncertainty as to w hether they will bo
.wanted to walk or drivo with the Queen
later in tho afternoon. They must
stay in theirapartments.for if by chance
they rihould be sent for and wero not
to be found at tho moment, their life
for a day or two would not bo n happy
one, so that a stroll in the grounds on
their own account is out of the ques
tion, till after four o'clock, when, if the
Queen has departed on a drive "without
them, they know they are freo till six
at any rate. On the Queen's return
there is more reading aloud, this time
of ponderous works on heavy philo
sophical subjects, or else tho arranging
of sketches, photographs, or, it may be,
the charity needle-work is brought out
till such timo as her Majesty goes to
dress for her nine o'clock dinner,
where, to tho relief of tho maid of hon
or, she is not expected to bo present.
By this timo sho is not infrequently
faint for the want of food, fur when not
at Court sho would naturally he finish
ing dinner at tho hour when it is tho
Queen's pleasure to commence it.
Young ladies do not, ns a rule, junrp
at the post of maid of honor to the

a fair chance of obtaining an "ostal)

season has been drawn blank that dis
consolate ladies have recourse to the
dignity, very much minus the leisure,
of joining the "Household." It follows

TUBERCULAR
WSEASES.

Milk and Meat Huppllnt.
In regard to tho epidemic of pleuro
pneumonia in Westchester County
lately several physicians of tho health
department have said that tho disease
was far less dangerous to a community
that tuberculosis, a malady which
afflicts many animals and fowls and is
readily transmitted to man. There
has been a noticeable increase in thu
number of deaths from tubercular com
plaints particularly from consumption,
in this city in lvoont years. In 1H77 of
tho 26,203 deaths in tho city, 4,041
wero caused by consumption alone,
and there wero about 1,000 deaths from
other tubercular diseases. The highest
death rate known in this city since the
last epidemic was in 1881, when 38,024
persons died. Consumption killed C,
812 that year, and the total number of
deaths from tubercular complaints was
6,924. In the following year tho deaths
from tubercular diseases numbered
6,870. Last year 7,000 persons died in
New York from these complaints, and
consumption nlono destroyed 5,477.
Tho deaths from nil prevailing con
tagious diseases In tho city aro insig
nificant in number compared with the
loss of life from tubercular disorders.
How much tho mortality among chil
dren is Increased by such complaints is
shown by tho deaths from tubercular
meningitis, and tabes meson terica, dis
eases which children sometimes inherit
from consumptive parents, but often
acquire with their food. Health-department
records show tho following
aths of children from these diseases
in four years: In 1879, 1,212; in 1880,
1,2!W: in 1881, l.iOl, and in 1882, 1.535.

2,000. A German surgeon kept a
